6 EIF intervention model Two main activities EIF engages in two very distinct activities in support of SMEs, using both its own-risk and mandate resources Issuing guarantees and credit enhancements to financial intermediaries in order to support lending, leasing, and other debt financings for SMEs: EIF issues guarantees for mandate transactions, own-risk and/or blended; EUR25.000,00 EUR20.000,00 EIB and EU mandate aggregate volume Debt Equity Guarantees issued under mandates are funded by cash paid in by the mandator and are not part of EIF s balance sheet EUR15.000,00 Investing in private equity funds oriented towards providing equity to SMEs: EUR10.000,00 EIF does not - as a general practice - invest in individual companies Private sector investors must provide a substantial part of the capital, depending on the mandate (as a general rule, at least 50% of an equity fund s capital); EIF is highly flexible and innovative engaging in these activities EUR5.000,00 EUR- 6
